His Victory In Measurable Means

 

With God

we shall do valiantly.

It is He

who will tread down

             our foes.

         Psalm 108.13

(In the Psalms,

our foes or adversaries

are anything we fear,

  both real and imagined.

The Almighty God

  is distinguished

by what He does,

by who He is,

and by how He loves us

  through the difficulties.

We were never meant

      to face them alone.

When we walk with God,

  He brings the victory

  in a million different

          and unexpected ways.

Anxiety, worry, stress,

  and despair

  are not modern constructions,

but what results from

  trying to live and measure up

              without God.

That is why this verse begins

           With God.)

O LORD,

Help us to not just see

  this situation with different eyes,

but to realize You are here.

Let Your strength

    pour over

    and evaporate our fears.

Show us a new way in this

    not just how to deal with it,

but to know You more.

Reveal to us Your strength.

Bring to this struggle

    in some impossible way

             Your glory.
